Resumo:The Eastern Mediterranean is within the center of a transition period. The-refore, understanding the interests of local and extra-regional actors would help to understand the possible future of this region. Due to its geopolitical significance, this area has developed into a battleground for regional and glo-bal entities that have competing interests. The authorities in the area were motivated to conduct exploratory operations and multilateral cooperation inthe Eastern Mediterranean region after new gas resources were found in thewaters off the coasts of Egypt and Cyprus. This process led to an increasein Turkey’s, Israel’s, and the neighboring states’ geopolitical activities in theEastern Mediterranean on both a regional and an international scale. Thesegeopolitical requirements are tied to these nations’ strategic requirements. The goal of this essay was to use game theory to evaluate geopolitically the compe-tition between the Eastern Mediterranean nations and to offer answers to any issues that may have arisen. The research was descriptive-analytical, and theinformation was gathered through online and library resources, depending onhistorical material and available proof.
